Station "F" at Albatross Bank

This morning we stopped at a special station on Albatross Bank south of Kodiak Island, AK.  Jokingly dubbed "Station F" ...  for fishing, it turned out to be a spot that provided some excitement for crew and scientists alike.  Almost every line over the side got a strike, and most everyone that wanted to, caught a fish or two... mostly Halibut and Pacific Cod.  The catch pictured on the deck below is about half of what was caught.  We had fish tonight for dinner, and although the menu below in the galley could be a joke, we certainly caught enough for fresh fish to be around for a while!!

Menu in the Galley ...  lets hope so!
